Ep. 23 Nischelle Turner is a Broadcasting SuperSTAR!
Nischelle Turner is an Emmy award winning journalist for Entertainment Tonight, a CNN Contributor, a go getter, an advocate, and an incredibly supportive friend.
In this episode of Ask Jillian we discuss how Nischelle and I met at FOX’s Good Day LA, the fun we had working together and the challenges of being females in the broadcasting world.
I loved what Nischelle brought to the mix at GDLA and have been so excited to see her career blossom. From Nischelle’s first on air job in Indiana, to New Orleans, the NFL and now two prestigious jobs at CNN and Entertainment Tonight. We reminisce about how Entertainment Tonight was a dream job growing up watching it for both us and now Nischelle has made it a reality!
We talk about finding support and mentors in this tough industry, the ups and downs, missed opportunities, cancelled shows and the hard won victories along the way.
How we both grew up far from La La Land, Nischelle was raised by an amazing single mom on a farm in Missouri and the impact that had on her life.
Also what it’s like to find your community as transplants to LA and creating a home as single women. Nischelle just built her dream home, it sounds amazing! Hopefully I’ll get an invite soon to come over and toast all her successes!
